Synopsis

A handsome veterinary student falls for a married circus performer in this romantic drama adapted from author Sara Gruen's bestselling novel, and directed by Francis Lawrence (I AM LEGEND). When Jacob (Robert Pattinson) meets Marlena (Reese Witherspoon), it's love at first sight - their shared affections for an extraordinary elephant stirring profound feelings of compassion within both of them. Theirs is a love that could span lifetimes, though the wrath of Marlena's dangerously domineering husband August (Christoph Waltz) threatens to spell tragedy for all involved.
